Search. A linking verb is a verb which connects a subject to its predicate without expressing an action. A linking verb is used to re-identify or describe its subject. The word, phrase, or clause which follows a linking verb to re-identify or describe the subject is called the subject complement. The most common linking verb is the verb to be.
Recognize a linking verb when you see one. Linking verbs do not express action. Instead, they connect the subject of the verb to additional information about the subject. Look at the examples below: Keila is a shopaholic. Ising isn't something that Keila can do.he following verbs are true linking verbs: any form of the verb be [ am, is, are, was, were, has been, are being, might have been, etc.], become, and seem.
